JACKSON OHIO THURSDAY. JULY IA. 1887.

at st. Louis would treat the President
with all the courtesy commensurate
with the dignity Of his position. They
condemn his Infamous attempt to in
suit them by giving back the flags
they captured from his Southern
friends, but they do not forget that he
is President. The real fact is, that
Mr.. Cleveland has not the cheek to
stand up before the Boys in Blue and
look them in the eyes, after the sneer-
ing veto messages delivered on some of
the Pension Bills, and the attempt to
return the flags It is not fear Of in
suit, but peace Of mind, that rises up
before him like a great club, interven-
ing between himself and the boys at
st. Louis. 1t would have been more
becoming the dignity of his high
office, had he merely declined, for rea-
sons known to himself. These whin-
ing letters, to the effect that the Grand
Army boys are angered at him, and
might attack, or at least insult him,
are too much like child's play, and will
firmly clinch, in the minds of the
American people, that the Presidential
chair is filled by great, blubbering
and blundering calf These able State
Papers ought to be stuffed and pre-
served in the National Museum as
mementoes Of the extremes of folly
reached by this foolish man.
It is a settled conviction in the
minds of great many men that Cleve-
land cared very little, and knew very
little, about the war. He must have
been an able-bodied man, about the
time the trouble was going on, yet he
is seemingly just gaining his first les
sons in war history. He is fighting
the Copperhead battle now, that
thousands Of his party fought some
twenty-five years ago. This man, who
deliberately went fishing on Decora-
ton Day, and purposely insulted an
Army Society in Washington which
assembled on another occasion, has
accomplished two important pieces of
statesmanship-he had the flags on
the public buildings in Washington
lowered, over the death Of Jake
Thompson-whose principal act was
the conspiracy to burn Northern
cities-and he attempted to return to
the Ex-Confederates the flags wrested
from them on the battlefield while he
was carousing in Buffalo. That is the
record of a Democratic President!
Think Of Grant, or Garfield, making
such record as that. But this hu-
initiation will not last long. James
G.. Blaine will soon take charge of af-
fairs at the White House, if he lives.
If the mighty man Of Maine" should
pass away, John Sherman, the gallant
Ohioan, may be still with US. Cleve-
lands record will hold a prominent
place-beside that of James Buchanan.

Fortify the system, by the use of
Ayers Sarsaparilla, against the dis

DR.. McGlynnn, the turbulent priest

DIR. McGlynnn, the turbulent priest
of New York, has been excommuni-
Gated by order of the Pope. The DIR.
got into the idea that he was too big
a man to be controlled by the Romish
Church, and off went his head. Mr..
George and Mr.. McGlynn will have
time now to work up the Land and
Labor questions more thoroughly and
effectively. It does seem, though,
that a minister can find plenty of
work in looking after the spiritual
welfare Of his parishioners, without
turning the pulpit into an election
eering stump. There are certain ques-
tions coming up from time to time
that are proper subjects for pulpit
reference, but generally speaking. the
pulpit is better off without politics.

DySpeDSia.

Makes the lives of many people mis-
cradle, and often leads to self-destruc-
tion. We know of no remedy for
dyspepsia more successful than Hoods
Sarsaparilla. 1t acts gently, yet sure
ly and efficiently, tones the stomach
and other organs, removes the faint
feeling, creates good appetite, cures
headache, and refreshes the burdened
mind. Give Hoods Sarsaparilla fair
trial. 1t will do you good.

What luxury is bath in summer.
Surely, but greater luxury is clear
head in winter; just when almost eve
rybody is sneezing and snuffiing with
a cold in the head. But when you are
attacked use Ely's Cream Balm. It
cures colds in the head, and what is
better, it cures the worst cases of
chronic catarrh and hay fever. Not a
liquid, not a snuff. Pleasant to use.

THE SECOND LETTER.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July Mayor
Francis, as Chairman of the special
committee appointed in February last
by the General Executive Committee
having in charge the preparations for
the Grand Army Encampment to in
vite President Cleveland to visit this
city, received the following response
by mail to-day:
The Jackson standard. [volume] (Jackson C.H., Ohio) 1847-1888, 1887-07-14

Mr.. Cleveland don't want to 60 to st. Louis,
lest dignity be lowered. This reminds one of
the case of jeff Davis. He didn't mind being
caught sneaking away with his wife's clothes
on, but the occupancy of a cell at Fortress Mon
roe nearly killed him.

Cleveland writes to st. Louis that the g. A. r.
boys would perhaps get on more pleasantly
without him, and he will stay at home. It's
not that. The boys would treat him great
deal better than his own conscience.

BiOOmingda.e Us. Paw Paw.

AS announced in our last issue, a game of
ball took place on the fair grounds between
the Bloomingdales and Paw Paws, which
resulted in a victory for Paw Paw by score
of nineteen to seventeen. The game was
called promptly at three o'clock by Umpire
FretZ, the visitors being sent to bat and re-
tired without run. In their half of the
inning, the Paw Paws placed one score to
their credit
The second inning resulted in four scores
for both the visitors and the home team one
of the Paw Paw runs being the magnificent
drive of Lee for four bases, on which he cas-
lily reached the home plate amid loud ap-
plause.
In the third, the visitors brought in six fat
runs after two men were out while the home
team had to be satisfied with one.
In the fourth and fifth innings, the visitors
added four runs more to their credit, while
the Paw Paws were blanked in the fourth,
but in the fifth five men trotted over the
home plate, leaving the score fourteen TO
eleven in favor of the visitors.
In the sixth, the Bloomingdales added one
more run to their already long string, while
our boys took two.
The seventh and eighth were goose eggs
FOR the visitors. The Paw Paws brought III
six in the seventh. but were BANKED III the
eighth. at which point the score stood nine
teen to fifteen in favor of the home team.
In the ninth, the visitors placed two more
runs to their credit, while the home team
left their half unplayed.
The game was one Of q good deal OF
amusement for the players as well as the
spectators While the umpire undoubtedly
intended to be all right in his decisions, he
was very lame and was governed almost ex-
clusively by the judgment called for by the
players. Had there been an umpire who
understood the game, the score would
have stood eleven to eight in favor of the
home team.
The features of the game were the remark
ably fine running catch of Spayde and the
bamboozling work of Warner and j. Clancy
from home 10 second and back again, which
worked twice in good shape.

Farewell AurnrikN.

One of the most enjoyable social events of
the past week took place on Wednesday
evening, August oath, at the residence of the
pastor of the Christian church, in the form
of surprise party for Mr.. Russell and his
estimabe wife. Mr.. Russell being about to
bid farewell to Paw Paw, much to the regret
of his congregation and friends, it was
deemed appropriate to plan a gathering OF
this kind, which was done so quietly that
the recipients were taken by storm. At six
o'clock p. M, the invited guests assembled at
the residence of A. Van Auken, and shortly
after, laden with well filled baskets. wended
their way TO their destination, where they
completely filled the house, TO the surprise
and temporary dismay of the occupants. Al
were in the best of spirits and very pleas
ant evening was passed. The repast served
was a most bounteous and delicious one, and
was in no wise slighted by the company.
During the evening, Rev. Mr.. Hayden. in
behalf of those present, presented blr. Rus
sell with purse of money and made some
beautiful remarks in connection with this. to
which Mr.. Russell responded with much
emotion. Though the occasion was a thor
oughly pleasant one, yet it was not unmingled
with vein of sadness, for all are sorry to
lose Mr and Mrs. Russell from our midst,
where they have done good work and made
hosts of warm friends. The best wishes of
every one will follow them to their new home.

Foul TIPS.

There is no doubt that, as " Fatty" said,
the one-eyed man seen by the Bloomingdales
hoodooed that club on last Thursday, but
the " red headed" girl failed to remove the
"magic SPELL as that gentleman predicted.
1--WE haven't much of a picnic either"
said the Baby when the score stood four
teen to six in favor of Bloomingdale, in the
middle of the fifth. He probably concluded
that they had not much of picnic before
they got through.
We expect TO hear that Frank Tucker has
gone into line of business other than APP
pearing before the footlights-that of base
ball umpiring. He was over here receiving
and giving pointers TO the Bloomingdale
umpire last Friday.
Jim Chandler's mouth was elongated to
considerable extent for three hours last Fri
day. Cause-listening TO, arguing with and
watching the pretzel umpire in the Bloom
ingdale game of last week.
When Lee would deliver one of his ont
shoots in last Fridays game, while the ball
was about half way to homo plate and headed
for the umpire, that unique gentlemen would
start for the picket fence and sing out "ball,"
and when it had taken its English and passed
over the plate, Clancy would call, judgment
on that" and after the umpire had regained
his equilibrium, he sang out strike"
Since their reorganization, the Lawton
and Paw Paw clubs have each played seven
games, of which Paw Paw has won four
one each from Lawton, Coolies, Otsego and
Bloomingdale; Lawton has won two-both
from Paw Paw. And yet there are good
many people in this place who swear by
Lawton and say that our boys can't play ball
a little bit.
1--WE can down those Paw Paws" said one
of the Boomingdale ball tossers TO John
Wood, after tho game last Friday. "They
were just fooling with you fellers," replied
John. Well, Ill bet we can beat them for
money" says Bloomingdale. "I'll just go
you 'tener' for luck" said John. "No, I'll
bet you fifty dollars" and John swooned;
but after he had got his breath, John pulled
out silver dollar and said, "I will bet You
that that you haven't got fifty cents" That
was rather rash proposition, but John knew
his man. The boys say he had forty-nine
cents and beer check.

An agricultural fair is an American insti-
tuition that merits the hearty support not
only of the farmers, but of the citizens at
large, az anything which aids agricultural
progress, aids all.
The management are anxious that every
business place in town should secure space,
and that each should make display. No
business is too small to secure recognition,
and none but will be benefited by a represen-
tation.
BY reading the epistie which emanated
from the pen of the president of our Union
Fair and appeared in last weeks issue, one
would readily suppose that he bad fair dam
sells, fair walks, fair talks and a"Fair" time
generally, while counting the sands on the
sea-shore.
Let floral hall be the pride OF every man,
woman and child who attends the Paw Paw
Union Fair and, to make il surely So, bring

all fine needle work, your pictures, statuary
or relics--in fact, anything that is of interest
to you as it will interest others. Don't for
get TO bring the babies-black or white, it's
just the same.
The picnic dinner spoken of last week,
seems to strike the maids and matrons in
these parts as being just the proper caper.
Now, some one 90 ahead and work it mp. Our
farmers clubs have all the elements of sue
cess for this enterprise among their number,
and they can bring in any amount of willing
workers to help us, if they will take up the
sport at once.
We hope every young man, whatever his
calling, will take an extra interest in the fair
this fall and not be content TO LEI his father,
or the members of the old society, drag him
forward any longer. The advantages the
young man of to-day has, are far superior to
any his father enjoyed, and yet we, as a
young generation, do not accomplish what
we might and ought to do.

At the annual reunion of the southwest
Michigan soldiers and sailors association
just held at Three Rivers, quite a compli-
ment was paid Van Buren, in the selection
of officers for the ensuing year, in-as-much
as q. L. Eaton of Mattawan, was made pres
ident, Daniel Spicer of Paw Paw vice-pres
ident, and Henry Spaulding of Hartford, a
member of the executive committee.
The Epispocal picnic at Lake Cora was
we'll attended and jolly time reported by all.
1t is said that the dinner was unusually fine
for such an occasion, and the "wind pud-
ding" served by Miss Ocobock was consid-
cred great addition. There was but one
downcast countenance visible, and that be-
longed 10 Seth Allen, whose lack o. of appe-
tite detracted greatly from his enjoyment.
Sam Holmes was presented with lobster
fresh from the sea-shore last Friday. Now
Sam is not to the manner born" and il is

from his shell, having used every available

him by procuring a cold chisel and an AK
from the store. Sam declares a lobster is
fearfully and wonderfully put together.
Last Friday Mrs. G. L. Chappell had a
birthday and, day or two before, number
of her friends and neighbors, fearing lest she
might forget that she had passed another
milestone in life's journey, unexpectedly in
vaded her domain and proceeded to have ii
all their own way the rest of the evening
Upon their departure, however, they rewarded
her forbearance by leaving behind them two
beautiful presents-an easy chair and CEN
ter table.
The regular annual school meeting will
occur on Monday evening next at the high
school rooms, and every citizen who has the
good of the school at heart and an interest
in maintaining the reputation it has already
acquired, should not fail to be present. We
were glad to see quite good attendance oi
ladies at last years meeting and hope still
larger number may be present this year, as
they thus not only exercise a legal right, bat
also exert good influence.
If the editor of the Courier had taken the
trouble to look up the local option law las

led his readers into the error of thinking tha
the board of supervisors was the proper
channel through which to secure q call FOL
the special election. The supervisors have
no more to do with it than the Courier mar
himself, the comfy clerk being the only per
son authorized to make such call.
